It has been a busy weekend for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

Two Richmond residents — a man and a woman — were both stabbed to death in a McDonald’s restaurant in Richmond on Friday (August 28) night. A 33-year-old man is in custody and will make his first court appearance on Monday (August 31) or Tuesday (September 1).

The assault occurred in the McDonald’s at the corner of Granville and No. 3 Road in Richmond. The IHIT has not released the names of the deceased. Three witnesses have been contacted, and investigators would like to speak to two males who were inside the restaurant at the time of the attack. One wore an orange and brown shirt, and the other had a red bag; both left the restaurant.
